- "Oh beauteous azure light that shines so gently pure and bright
Across lands aplenty thrives the freedom of countless lives" - —Excerpt from "These Gentle Fields", Jutland's national anthem
The Kingdom of Jutland (also referred to as Jutland) is a small nation (approx. 784,000 km²) that is economically blockaded by the larger and more powerful Ruzi Empire. It is the homeland of the protagonist Amleth Grønkjær and his friends/co-conspirators, the Circle of Five, in Valkyria Revolution.
Overview[]
The Kingdom of Jutland is an East Europan constitutional monarchy that is governed by its constitutional monarch, administrative cabinet, and legislative parliament. This coastal nation borders the Azure and Pershan Seas, making it a trade hub connecting Europa to the East. Prior to the Liberation War, Jutland shared its land borders with the Ruzi Empire and the Persha-Zakhs Imperial Alliance to the east, and Bulgar and Grecia to the west.
It is home to approximately 800,000 people.
Though small and lacking in Ragnite, its diligent citizens and natural resources developed a new manufacturing industry.
The official currency is the Krone (kr).

Trivia[]
- In real life, Jutland is a peninsula that forms continental Denmark and part of Northern Germany. The name is most associated with the WW1 Battle of Jutland, which occurred between May 31 and June 1 1916. This was a naval engagement between the British Grand Fleet and the High Seas Fleet of Imperial Germany that took place in the North Sea west of Jutland, and was the largest naval battle of the First World War and the last naval battle fought primarily by battleships.
- Its geographical location and shape is similar to that of Turkey and the fact that it fights with the western empires against Ruz, essentially a fictional Russia, makes Jutland analogous to the Ottoman Empire (apart from the Danish names of its inhabitants).
